Need some help with your holiday shopping this year? Check out our NEW Terrific Twenty, unveiled today at MelissaAndDoug.com! This list gathers the top toys of 2012, with items for every child in every age range. Including arts and crafts, wooden favorites, educational toys, classic toys for toddlers, and gifts for big kids, too, this is a great place to start as you kick off your holiday shopping!

Here are a few highlights from our holiday gift list. Which ones are your favorites?

This tough, two-piece tractor-trailer is ready to roll . . . and ready to build! Packed with wooden construction pieces and pre-drilled with holes for the wooden nails and bolts, the truck itself is a moving building site.

This sturdy push toy rattles and rumbles to encourage a toddler’s early steps! The colorful tumble-toys, securely contained inside three clear canisters, roll cheerfully around when the walker moves forward or back.

This handsome wooden mailbox delivers pretend-play fun and crafty skill-builders in one cool package! Decorate the mailbox, fill in the cards, make a delivery, and raise the flag. Don’t know what to write? Drawing activities and play ideas are included to keep this letter box filled with creative correspondence and lots of fun!

Build your own gear board! Kids get to choose a template from 10 unique designs, then add the gears and spin! Or use the white magnetic surface for a range of counting, adding, and problem-solving activities (included).

Check out the entire Terrific Twenty list here, and be sure to connect with us on Facebook! Starting November 6, we’ll be giving away an item from our Terrific Twenty list EVERY DAY for 20 days to our Facebook fans!
